Description: | A large discrepancy between the measured values of downwelling hemispheric shortwave radiation and the derived values occurred on 2/02 at the listed sites. The difference is on the order of 200 Wm^(-2) at E2 and to a lesser extent at the other affected stations. This problem most likely resulted from a previous day or night snow/ice accumulation on the Direct(NIP), Downwelling Sortwave(PSP) and/or Downwelling Diffuse(8-48) instruments. During the morning hours of 02/02, Approx 1300-2000GMT, snow/ice was covering one or more of these three instruments resulting in faulty readings and incorrect derived downwelling shortwave values as well. Instrument readings indicate the problem resolved itself later in the day through normal meltoff. |

DataStreams: | sgpsirsE9.00, sgpsirsE9.b1, sgpsirs20sE9.a0 |
Description: | Measured values of diffuse shortwave downwelling radiation fluctuated below derived values of downwelling shortwave radiation by 50 W/m^2 during the afternoon hours under clear conditions. SMOS precipitation and wind speed data reveals rain and wind the night before on 02/20/03 0100 GMT probably contaminated the PSP dome with dirt. Precipitation of .25mm on 02/23/04 0300 seems to have effectively cleared the PSP dome since PSP data on 02/24/04 compares correctly to direct and diffuse components. |

Description: | Measured values of diffuse shortwave downwelling radiation fluctuated below derived values of downwelling shortwave radiation during the afternoon hours under clear conditions, probably due to a dirty PSP dome. SMOS precipitation and wind speed data reveal rain and wind on 02/19/03 at 2300 GMT probably contaminated the PSP dome with dirt. Precipitation of .4mm on 02/29/04 1400 seems to have effectively cleared the PSP dome since PSP data on 03/01/04 compares correctly to direct and diffuse components. |

Subject: | SGP/SIRS/E2 - Reprocessed: Longwave Calibration error |
DataStreams: | sgpsirsE2.b1 |
Description: | Modified pyrgeometer calibration procedures were implemented beginning in February 2004. These modified procedures introduced a calibration bias in the longwave data. The previous procedures were re-implemented at all sites between December 2005 and February 2006 to restore proper calibrations. The data collected while the incorrect procedures were in place have been reprocessed to remove the calibration bias. The reprocessed 60 second averaged data are based on 3 instantaneous 20 second data records rather than on 60 1 second instanteous data records. Still, these data are considered far superior to the originally processed data. The reprocessed data were archived in September 2006. |
